Chapter 6 Trapped

TRAPPED

I stared wide eye at the huge men before me, their features hard and dangerous as they stared right back at me but they weren’t the ones who caught my attention but the man who stood at the far end from us

His face wasn’t hard to forget, I don’t think anyone would want to forget the face of the most powerful man in the city, a very known billionaire and also the brother to the most dangerous mob boss, Ezekiel Genovose.

Shit, how did I get myself in this situation

Then it clicked to me, the reason why the pay was so high and why Blaine didn’t give much information about the heist. He knew I wouldn’t be that stupid to accept such risky job

I grit my teeth hard at my misfortune, if I am lucky I will be killed immediately but I know that won’t happen, they will surely torture whatever information I have with me then dispose me

Suddenly he turns towards me, our eyes locking for a brief moment before getting cut short with a little mutter from him and a wave of his hand before he walked away. In a blink of an eye, I notice the men walking heavily towards me.

I pushed myself back a little panic consuming me but I was backed up by another man who held me in place while the other man aggressively put the bag over my face then began to drag me off.

“Hey, let me go!! Let me go-“ I resisted but their hold on me was too strong and firm

A while after I get pushed to the rough ground. I bit down on my lips from the harsh pain on my knees and arms

My arms were tied and I was still restricted from seeing, anticipation of what would happen next slowly ate me up from inside. After what felt like forever, I was pulled up onto a chair, tied up against it then my blindfold was taken off.

The bright light hanging loosely from the ceiling immediately blinded me, I blinked my eyes multiple times before it adjusted to the dimly lit room.

I quickly looked around, trying to access my environment, any way to escape…

We were in a slightly big cell, at the corner stood a metal table with different torture objects, the smell of fresh blood invaded my nostrils

My heart immediately sank

Then I looked over at the people present, it was just two heavy men staring at nothing in silence. I looked down at the rope used to tie me then a plan immediately struck to me.

If I could cut the ropes off me I could easily take out this two men then make a successful escape

Mid thought ,the main door bust open as heavy footsteps approach us. I squint my eyes a bit trying to make out who it was but then he made a proper appearance as a seat was brought forward right before me, then he gracefully sat on it staring hard at me

“Who the hell are you “ he demanded, his voice deep and smooth, his features held no words

“I will not repeat myself again, unless you want one of your teeth gone” he threatened, staring deeply at me

I sucked in air, my brows furrowed at him

“I’m no one “ I muttered staring back at him

“Who sent you? What is your motive ?” He questions further

“I have no idea who sent me, and I came for data chip, that’s all “ I confessed

He stared at me for a moment trying to read my face but it seems he wasn’t buying my story, not that I’m surprised.

Why would a thief simply come to a very dangerous place to steal a simple data chip, it wasn’t adding up

“I don’t think you have any idea who is seated right in front of you and what your faith is right now” he says slowly, his brows still furrowed but calm .

Seeing as I wasn’t responding he gets up from his seat and slowly walks over to the table of torture equipment. I watch as his fingers glides over each tool like he was letting his sense make a pick

My stomach was now in a knot, I had no idea what to do or say to prevent what was about to happen

“Look I swear, I have no idea who had sent me there and I had no idea you owned the place, I swear it” I immediately blurt out, my eyes eyeing the tool he finally chose, it was a small whip.

His fingers played with it a bit as he stares at it like it was his favourite toy

“So you’re telling me…” he drags as he moves closer to me , “you had no idea who you’re working for yet you took on the mission ?”

“Yes I swear!! I only did it for the money nothing else “ I grit out almost desperately

Suddenly his eyes darken as though I had said something that ticked him off

“I hate lies !!” He yells then flung the whip up in the air and landed in on my arm

Extreme pain burn though my whole body from the single whip, I had no idea when a loud scream of pain escapes my mouth

“I know you were sent here to spy !! “ he yells landing another strike on the same spot

“I know you were sent here to sabotage the business!!” He yells then another strike and another…now on different spot, at one point he wrapped his large hands around my neck strangely me while he yelled out questions at my face.

My throat was sore from crying out in pain, it was like I was being burned alive. The pain was intense, something I just couldn’t take

After what felt like forever he stopped, his brown tailored shirt now a bit stained with my blood. He sat back on the chair before me as a single wipes was handed to him which he used to clean his hands but not his face which had few smeared drops

I was shaking in pain, my breathing slow and difficult as I was slouched down unable to move.

“All this pain…for what ?” He says softly, his voice smooth and calm

“For someone who has obviously abandoned you ?” he finishes

The room was silent, my eyes blurry as I could feel every pulse and blood drip to the ground. In my four years of experience I’ve never been caught, I’ve always made sure to play it safe, I knew my limits and what I was capable of and deep down I knew Blaine was going to get me killed one way or the other but yet I still kept going back

I needed the money so bad but not enough to get myself killed

“All you just have to do is give me names, what the plan was , who else you were with, how did you successfully get in…everything !” He says in a low tone as he pushed me upright , my open wound rubbing against each other in the most painful way

“I…I told you, it was an…anonymous message” I repeat “I only did it cause of the money, I was given little to no information only how to get into the building and where I would find the chip…that’s all” I explained one more time

He let out a hiss of frustration as he turns his back on me, his silence deafening. I was beginning to worry what the next torture tool was going to be. And at this point I was beginning to pray he ended my life immediately rather than such gruesome torture.

“This isn’t over, I will be back tomorrow and when I return I expect you to be ready to speak the truth or you will beg me to end your life here!” He threatened.

But it was more of a promise, a promise I knew he was going to fulfil.
